Chapter 2: Wealth and Wealth
After climbing over the top of the mountain, Xunyi touched Xiyang with his elbow inadvertently. The two of them had been inseparable from each other for a long time. Xiyang immediately quietly pulled out the hatchet on his waist, because he also noticed a trace of dangerous information at this time, which was a feeling of something peeking behind his back.
The next moment, the two turned around at the same time, widened their eyes and set off, but the eyes were empty except for the low weeds. There was not even a tree in the barren mountain. There was no animal that threatened them in the weeds that were only about a foot high.
Xiyang glanced at the top of the mountain and whispered: "I also noticed it, but there shouldn't be ferocious beasts here. Besides, in such a hot day, it won't come out even if there are."
Xunyi also stared at the top of the mountain and whispered in a low voice: "Since you have sensed it, it must be a bit strange here. Let's be more alert and walk slowly for a while before talking about it. I don't think it's a ferocious beast."
As soon as the two made up their minds, they saw a middle-aged Taoist priest climbing to the top of the mountain from the other side of the mountain. This man looked ordinary, but his eyes were very vivid, and he was carrying a long sword on his back.
"Okay! As expected, the qualifications are excellent. As soon as I scattered my spiritual sense and you felt aroused, haha..." The Taoist priest walked up to them with a happy expression.
Since it was not a wild beast peeping, Xiyang and Xunyi breathed a sigh of relief, but Xiyang still held the hatchet tightly.
Seeing that the Taoist priest was not like a villain, Xunyi asked curiously: "Divine consciousness? What is the divine consciousness?"
The Taoist priest looked quite excited, and his eyes lit up at the two of them, as if he was looking at two rare treasures, and said, "You will know in the future that the qualifications of the two little brothers are really enviable. Since I have met them, I must not miss the opportunity. No matter what, I will take you on the road of cultivating immortals. With your qualifications, you will definitely achieve something."
"Cultivate immortals!" The two looked at each other, and their expressions were a little strange. After they arrived in the town, they heard some rumors about cultivation. They were very excited and had the idea of cultivating immortals. However, after asking those who told the rumors, they found that they all heard from the truth. No one had really seen immortals. As for the Immortal Cave, it was either in the vague overseas or in the illusion of the horizon, they could hear about the same thing as those ancient myths. So far, they understood that the rumors were mostly fabricated, and their restless hearts calmed down. The immortal masters who came to the Lin Mansion to catch ghosts had seen three or four. They were very excited at first. Now they have regarded catching ghosts as playing monkeys, and they just thought it was a rare excitement. No wonder they had strange expressions at the moment.
The Taoist priest was so happy that he said: "I am from the Tianying Sect, have you heard of it?"
The two looked at each other, and then shook their heads in a daze.
The Taoist priest was a little disappointed, and then explained with a smile: "The Tianying Sect is the most premier immortal cultivation sect in this radius of thousands of miles. There are more than a thousand disciples under his sect. You will never be wrong to follow me."
"So... are you really... a god? Are you here to catch ghosts for the Lin Mansion?" Xiyang asked hesitantly.
The Taoist priest smiled and shook his head, without saying nonsense, pointed to a stone the size of a millstone that was indexed to the outside, and said, "Look at it." Then he grabbed the void and the big stone immediately flew towards this side.
Xiyang and Xunyi's eyes immediately became straightened. When they saw the big stone about to hit the Taoist priest, they couldn't help but exclaim. The Taoist priest was very calm and had time to glance at the two of them. He felt a little complacent on his face. He stretched out his fingers as if he was extremely relaxed, and the big stone that flew quickly stopped in the air.
Xunyi and Xiyang stared blankly at the big rock floating in front of them, opening their mouths wide open, and were as shocked as stone sculptures and unable to move at all.
The Taoist priest seemed to think it was not enough, so he floated up motionlessly and slowly landed on the big stone. Then he stepped on the big stone and slowly landed on the ground. Then he said, "How about it? Although I am not a god, I still know some of these small magical powers."
Xiyang, who had recovered from his consciousness, still said with a dull expression: "Is this a little magical power?"
The Taoist priest smiled slightly, pinched the magic tricks and stroked them at the two of them. The two shivered at the same time, and they felt cool all over their bodies and heat all disappeared. It felt as if they were covered by a cool cover, and the space around them was isolated from the hot outside world.
This unspeakable comfort made Xiyang urge to dance and ask excitedly: "What kind of magical power is this?"
The Taoist priest said gently: "Driving away the cold and avoiding the heat is not considered a magical power. You can use it with a little cultivation level. I think you two can do it in three to five years."
"Really?!" Xiyang's heart was pounding. He looked at Xunyi in a blink of an eye, but found that his face seemed a little wrong, and he was retreating like a dodge.
The Taoist priest also thought about Xunyi's abnormality and looked at him with concern.
Xunyi forced a smile and said, "I am weak and afraid of the chills, and I feel a little uncomfortable."
"Oh?" The Taoist priest was a little surprised, walked over and grabbed his wrist, focused on it and investigated it for a while, then shook his head and said, "I checked your body and nothing happened."
Xiyang suddenly remembered something and said with a sincere look: "Although the Taoist priest said that he was not a god, I think he was almost the same as a god. He had a headache. I think the Taoist priest would be able to cure the disease. I hope the Taoist priest will be merciful."
The Taoist priest smiled and said, "I am not worried about my physical illness. After practicing the introductory techniques for a while, all kinds of diseases will naturally disappear. This is better than any magical elixir in the mortal world." Seeing that Xiyang was still unwilling to accept it, he explained, "It's not that I don't treat him, don't really treat me as a god. My cultivation level is not as good as a world. Don't worry, I won't lie to you. Before entering the sect, I am a sick person, and the sarcomer disappeared soon."
Xi Yangneng felt the sincerity of the Taoist priest. He looked at Xunyi, and his eyes were filled with excitement and determination. These magical powers revealed by the Taoist priest were enough to shock and impress any mortal, let alone a half-old child like him.
Xunyi's heart was beating violently. He walked to Xiyang, leaned over his head and seemed to whisper, and then smiled at the Taoist priest awkwardly, saying, "Can the Taoist priest ask us to discuss that if we really want to follow the Taoist priest, we have to go back and say hello to our relatives. Also, we are coming out to deliver things to others, so we have to deliver them first."
The Taoist priest nodded and said, "Where are you living in? I will just tell you to your family. I am afraid that you will reveal the methods I have just revealed. The master sect prohibits disciples from showing magic in front of mortals, and can only use one or two to win the faith when accepting disciples."
Xiyang looked at Xunyi, then pointed to the northwest and said, "I am both orphans, and I live in Xilin Village over there. Just say something to Grandpa Lu and Uncle Dashan in the village."
"Are you two orphans?" The Taoist priest's face appeared again. Seeing the two nodded, he repeatedly said, "Okay, okay, that's even better. You wait for me here. I'll send these two packages with you when I come back." After that, he asked about his names, and his figure flickered over the mountain and disappeared.
When the Taoist priest disappeared, Xiyang looked at Xunyi with a solemn expression. The reason why he asked the Taoist priest to go to Xilin Village instead of going to the closer town to say hello to Erzhuang was to make him delay more time. When Xunyi said he wanted to say hello to his relatives, he understood the other party's intention.
Xunyi said: "I think we'd better run first!"
Xiyang hesitated and said, "This may be a great opportunity. I want to go with him and bet once."
Xunyi frowned and said, "This opportunity is so cheap. It's okay to meet an immortal that is rare in a thousand years. Why is it so coincidental that we both have excellent qualifications? I heard that we are orphans and his joy is suspicious. What makes me even more uneasy is that the coolness he made makes me feel uncomfortable. I pretended to whisper to you, and I entered the coolness again and experienced it. The discomfort became more obvious and made me panic."
Xiyang said: "But I feel very comfortable in the coolness. I have thought about all the things you said, but we have seen the magical powers he showed with our own eyes, and when he looked at his expression and listened to his words, I think he is not a demon or a ghost." Seeing Xunyi frowned and said nothing, he gritted his teeth, "How about this, you run away immediately, I will leave this time, if it is indeed an opportunity from heaven, I will come back to find you again, and I will ask him to accept you as his disciple anyway."
Hearing that said, Xunyi put down the package on his body, sat on the grass with his knees in his arms, his eyebrows still frowned.
"You... this is..." Xiyang looked at Xunyi with a calm face. He really didn't want to separate from his brother, but after all, he himself was also suspicious of what was happening in front of him. In addition, the coolness made Xunyi feel uncomfortable, so he went to gamble and then grabbed his brother after the right bet. This was the best way he could think of.
Xunyi breathed and said, "Then let's bet together and give me the hatchet."
"Really!" Xiyang was overjoyed. He was still a child after all. His unrestrainedness since childhood made him not have so many fears and concerns in his heart, and his ideas were simple. Even if this was a disaster, he hoped that his brother would be with him. At worst, he could be reincarnated together and become a brother.
Although Xunyi felt that he should run, the temptation of cultivating immortals was too great. He said he ran, but he was very hesitant in his heart. If Xiyang had hesitated more, he would definitely force Xiyang to run. Now that Xiyang is determined, he will certainly not let his brother take risks alone. He made up his mind and took it calmly.
After taking the hatchet handed by Xiyang, Xun Yi looked at him and said, "Actually, I believe in this Taoist priest too. If you really can't come back, it won't be of any interest to leave me alone."
Xiyang patted his shoulder hard, sat beside him and said happily: "I knew you wouldn't be so loyal, okay! If we really have such great blessings this time, then after becoming an immortal, we can repay Grandpa Lu and the others' kindness, so that they can all live forever."
"Yes!" Xun Yi nodded heavily, and his expression became excited.
"Become an immortal, hehe...haha..." Xiyang became happier the more he thought about it, and punched Xunyi.
Xunyi also punched back, then closed his smile and whispered: "Did you see it when you are happy? He seemed to begging us to follow him, so even if it was a disaster, he didn't seem to want to take action here. Then we have the opportunity to do some more tests before following him, and try to ask what should be asked clearly, and even if we die, we have to die to understand."
